8 Crimsworth Terrace - Midgehole, Hebden Bridge

Hebden Bridge is a truly unique town being surrounded by sweeping hills and open countryside. It is widely known for having a cosmopolitan atmosphere usually found in larger towns.

The area boasts countless rights of way, footpaths and bridleways that pass through dramatic and varied scenery. The Pennine way passes very close by and the Calderdale Way, a 50 mile circular route around the Calder Valley, passes within 50m of the cottage.

The Rochdale Canal runs through the centre of the town and following extensive restoration works now links with the Calder & Hebble Navigation allowing through access to the rest of Yorkshire.

Hardcastle Crags itself is a beautiful National Trust-owned wooded valley and is incredibly popular with walkers and ramblers. There are guided walks and other activities throughout the year.

Gibson Mill, a 19th Century former Cotton Mill derelict since the 1950s , is now the National Trust's flagship environmental project and a role model for sustainability. It is home to some fascinating exhibitions including displays on the history of the Crags and the mill.
